How do you get an entire organization back in orbit? In this episode of the Grow Further podcast, former astronaut Dr. Mike Foale returns to talk about joining NASA after the Challenger explosion. He tells Chris and Ellie about the cultural transformation as they underwent and boldly shares how creating a psychologically safe environment could have prevented some of their most notorious disasters. Also in this episode: The importance of giving everyone a voice when making decisions The role we each play in building psychological safety How being honest about risks can prevent future accidents or incidents

Our hosts explore Michael's journey from being laughed at because of his boyhood dream, to being viewed as a spy by the Russians, to ultimately achieving his goals and the successes and failures along the way. Also in this episode:-Michael shares his greatest accomplishment and how it helped him with empathy-The importance of maintaining motivation-The significance of teamwork
Este último episodio imagina un planeta llamado Terra, cuya civilización alienígena extremadamente avanzada está terraformando y colonizando otro planeta en su sistema estelar. El episodio presenta a Noor Power Station en su examen de cómo las civilizaciones usan la energía, así como a RASSOR, un robot desarrollado por la NASA. El astrofísico Adam Frank habla sobre el Área 51, explica por qué aún no se ha descubierto vida extraterrestre y analiza la posibilidad de civilizaciones extraterrestres en otras partes del universo. El astronauta Michael Foale habla sobre una colisión en la estación espacial Mir y el peligro de la radiación espacial para los astronautas. El astro biólogo Doug Vakoch habla sobre el mensaje de Arecibo y la posibilidad de comunicación con inteligencia extraterrestre.

Michael Foale was on board the Mir space station when a resupply vessel crashed into it in June 1997. It was the worst collision in the history of space flight and it sent Mir spinning out of control. Michael was one of the three astronauts who had to try to repair the damage and get the space station back on course. In 2016 he told Alex Last about their ordeal. This programme is a rebroadcast.

It can be oddly peaceful inside a dying spacecraft. That was not something Michael Foale ever suspected—and with good reason. When you’re inside a spacecraft that’s dying, you’re likely to die right along with it. But now that Foale was in that very situation, after six weeks aboard Russia’s Mir space station, he was surprised at the sense of serenity that came over him.TIME’s Jeffrey Kluger takes you through the events that make it one of the most harrowing space missions of all time.
This week we chat about the week in space. We chat about Michael Foale and his time on Mir and his induction to the hall of fame. New Zealand, Vector-R launch, some space rivalry and much more.

When you were little did you ever dream of becoming an astronaut? Well Michael Foale did and he actually made it happen. Born in the UK Foale completed both his undergraduate and doctorate degrees in Cambridge before joining NASA and going on to become the most experienced UK-born astronaut. Well he was back in Cambridge to talk about his experiences at a Pint of Science event and Connie Orbach went along to find out how a UK lad got to be a NASA astronaut... Like this podcast?
